Sound Tribe Sector 9 with Savoy at Red Rocks Amphitheatre - 9/10/11

Friends! I'm sorry this post has taken a week to get out to you, but I have been busy working every day this past week. It's Sunday now and I'd much rather write this than watch football! ;-)


First off I'm going to start with SAVOY. They absolutely ROCKED (like my pun?) the Red Rocks Amphitheatre last Saturday night. I've never seen so many people as into an opening act as people were for these guys. It was also super interesting how many people were actually enjoying Savoy since they have a very different style than STS9. STS9's genre-blending sound incorporates electronic music and instrumental rock with a touch of bass and Savoy doesn't have that instrumental rock sound at all. Savoy sounded very "house" to me however, what sold me over was the three dubstep songs they played. I'm not sure if it was just the massive sound system at Red Rocks but I was blown away by these songs (one of which I already knew), and they were so sick to hear live. I took a video of one of them - the other two I didn't video because I was too busy raging to them, for real. The video below is Savoy playing "Welcome to Jamrock" and if you click that link you can hear the version of the song on YouTube. Remember to mute my music playlist on the right-hand side of this page.

The other song they played that was amazing was "I'm In Need" and then the other one I still don't know the name of, but I found a video of it that someone else took, and it's worth the watch! Click here to watch it... trust me you won't regret it! And feel free to let me know the name of that song if you know it.

Savoy is coming back to Colorado in November to The Fillmore and I'm definitely planning on going! Next up... Sound Tribe Sector 9 (STS9)! This was by far the best show I've seen from STS9, as the past two shows of theirs that I've been to did not do them justice (venue's fault, not theirs). In my opinion, STS9 gives such a great performance and with the bass that they add to their music, their sound really makes for an awesome live experience. My camera did me good at this specific show too! I thought that my pictures from this show turned out pretty well.

Check out my two videos from STS9 at Red Rocks below!


STS9 played three nights in Colorado - first night at the Ogden Theatre and the last two at Red Rocks. On Friday night at Red Rocks, Snoop Dogg opened for STS9, if that tells you anything! I think they are the perfect amount of famous. Click here for STS9's tour dates and for my NC readers, they will be at MoogFest on Halloween weekend!

Happy Sunday!
